Smooth, blemish-free skin is not possible for everyone, but you can fake the look of clear skin by hiding blemishes in a natural way. It only takes a few products and some time to create the look of flawless skin. The key to hiding blemishes is to use a light hand with all products. In your attempt to hide blemishes, it is easy to over-apply make-up. This makes the blemish more noticeable and can further irritate skin.
Step 1
Apply a non-comedogenic moisturizer. The moisturizer will prevent makeup from caking on the blemish and making it more noticeable. A non-comedogenic brand will not block pores, and thus will help prevent new blemishes from forming.
Step 2
Smooth a primer over skin. Foundation primers create a smooth canvas for concealing products.
Step 3
Apply a foundation that is the same color as your skin over your entire face.
Step 4
Dot concealer on blemishes. Choose a concealer that is slightly lighter than your foundation to counteract redness in the blemishes.
Step 5
Dust your entire face with translucent powder. This sets the foundation and concealer so that they last all day.
Tips and Warnings
- Choose a concealer with a creamy consistency for the most natural looking finish.
